| Judges 17:1 | Now there was a man of the hill-country of Ephraim named Micah. | And there was a man of the hill-country of Ephraim, whose name was Micah. | There was at that time a man of mount Ephraim whose name was Michas, |
| Judges 17:2 | And he said to his mother, The eleven hundred shekels of silver which were taken from you, about which you took an oath and said in my hearing, I have given this silver to the Lord from my hand for myself, to make a pictured image and a metal image: see, I have the silver, for I took it: so now I will give it back to you. And his mother said, May the blessing of the Lord be on my son. | And he said unto his mother, The eleven hundred [pieces] of silver that were taken from thee, about which thou didst utter a curse, and didst also speak it in mine ears, behold, the silver is with me; I took it. And his mother said, Blessed be my son of Jehovah. | Who said to his mother: The eleven hundred pieces of silver, which thou hadst put aside for thyself, and concerning which thou didst swear in my hearing, behold I have, and they are with me. And she said to him: Blessed be my son by the Lord. |
| Judges 17:3 | And he gave back the eleven hundred shekels of silver to his mother, and his mother said, I have made the silver holy to the Lord from me for my son, to make a pictured image and a metal image. | And he restored the eleven hundred [pieces] of silver to his mother; and his mother said, I verily dedicate the silver unto Jehovah from my hand for my son, to make a graven image and a molten image: now therefore I will restore it unto thee. | So he restored them to his mother, who said to him: I have consecrated and vowed this silver to the Lord, that my son may receive it at my hand, and make a graven and a molten god, so now I deliver it to thee. |
| Judges 17:4 | So he gave the silver back to his mother. Then his mother took two hundred shekels of silver and gave them to a metal-worker who made a pictured image and a metal image from them: and it was in the house of Micah. | And when he restored the money unto his mother, his mother took two hundred [pieces] of silver, and gave them to the founder, who made thereof a graven image and a molten image: and it was in the house of Micah. | And he restored them to his mother: and she took two hundred pieces of silver and gave them to the silversmith, to make of them a graven and a molten god, which was in the house of Michas. |
| Judges 17:5 | And the man Micah had a house of gods; and he made an ephod and family gods and put one of his sons in the position of priest. | And the man Micah had a house of gods, and he made an ephod, and teraphim, and consecrated one of his sons, who became his priest. | And he separated also therein a little temple for the god, and made an ephod, and theraphim, that is to say, a priestly garment, and idols: and he filled the hand of one of his sons, and he became his priest. |
| Judges 17:6 | In those days there was no king in Israel: every man did as seemed right to him. | In those days there was no king in Israel: every man did that which was right in his own eyes. | In those days there was no king in Israel, but every one did that which seemed right to himself. |
| Judges 17:7 | Now there was a young man living in Beth-lehem-judah, of the family of Judah and a Levite, who was not a townsman of the place. | And there was a young man out of Beth-lehem-judah, of the family of Judah, who was a Levite; and he sojourned there. | There was also another young man of Bethlehem Juda, of the kindred thereof: and he was a Levite, and dwelt there. |
| Judges 17:8 | And he went away from the town of Beth-lehem-judah, looking for somewhere to make his living-place; and on his journey he came to the hill-country of Ephraim, to the house of Micah. | And the man departed out of the city, out of Beth-lehem-judah, to sojourn where he could find [a place], and he came to the hill-country of Ephraim to the house of Micah, as he journeyed. | Now he went out from the city of Bethlehem, and desired to sojourn wheresoever he should find it convenient for him. And when he was come to mount Ephraim, as he was on his journey, and had turned aside a little into the house of Michas, |
| Judges 17:9 | And Micah said to him, Where do you come from? And he said to him, I am a Levite from Beth-lehem-judah, and I am looking for a living-place. | And Micah said unto him, Whence comest thou? And he said unto him, I am a Levite of Beth-lehem-judah, and I go to sojourn where I may find [a place]. | He was asked by him whence he came. And he answered: I am a Levite of Bethlehem Juda, and I am going to dwell where I can, and where I shall find a place to my advantage. |
| Judges 17:10 | Then Micah said to him, Make your living-place with me, and be a father and a priest to me, and I will give you ten shekels of silver a year and your clothing and food. | And Micah said unto him, Dwell with me, and be unto me a father and a priest, and I will give thee ten [pieces] of silver by the year, and a suit of apparel, and thy victuals. So the Levite went in. | And Michas said: Stay with me, and be unto me a father and a priest, and I will give thee every year ten pieces of silver, and a double suit of apparel, and thy victuals. |
| Judges 17:11 | And the Levite said he would make his living-place with the man, and he became to him as one of his sons. | And the Levite was content to dwell with the man; and the young man was unto him as one of his sons. | He was content, and abode with the man, and was unto him as one of his sons. |
| Judges 17:12 | And Micah gave the position to the Levite, and the young man became his priest, and was in the house of Micah. | And Micah consecrated the Levite, and the young man became his priest, and was in the house of Micah. | And Michas filled his hand, and had the young man with him, for his priest, saying: |
| Judges 17:13 | Then Micah said, Now I am certain that the Lord will do me good, seeing that the Levite has become my priest. | Then said Micah, Now know I that Jehovah will do me good, seeing I have a Levite to my priest. | Now I know God will do me good, since I have a priest of the race of the Levites. |
